Jrue and Derrick Perfect teammates

Both Derrick White and Jrue Holiday can score whenever they truly want. Yet they are the consummate teammates who love getting other guys involved. Last night's game vs the Fakers saw them garner 18 assists. Those are some excellent numbers, plus I'm sure Joe is guiding what he wants from them as well. Both guys are defensive Dawgs! With a total of three steals and three blocks you have to tip your hat to them. How about Jrues D on Leflop... Jrue Holiday has that killer on D and does it so effortlessly. 

I know I said they can score whenever they want and combined they had 36 points all of which were quality baskets and impacted the game. Each guys is a TOTAL PACKAGE! Kudos to our wiz president Brad Stevens for finding these gems. Both epitomize what it means to be a Celtic. As much as I bust Wyc kudos to allowing Brad to make things happen. Shout-out to Coach Mazzulla, last year he was thrown into a job where he couldn't impart his philosophies in such a short time. This season he has not only done that but his staff is suited to his liking. He knows and has a vision for what Celtic basketball looks like. It's showing more and more each game. One more thing both Jrue and Derrick belong on the All Star team. They are part of a starting five that has only lost one game when they are together. Bleed Green! Celtic Pride!

A sorrowful farewell to Kitty's Restaurant (North Reading, MA) as a family tradition

  Time to say "Goodbye" to Kitty's Restaurant - my   family's destination and tradition for six generations and more than 80 years. My memories of Kitty's go back to the early-1950's . I would accompany my dad and grandfather on fishing trips to the Ipswich River in North Reading, Massachusetts - followed by a visit to the restaurant on Main Street. In later years, my wife, Linda, and I would eat there with our two kids, Marc and Lisa - and years later - with our two grand daughters - and still later - with our great grandson, Carson. Author and family at Kitty's approx. 10 years ago Kitty's never disappointed. The drinks were big and well-made . The food was terrific - as were the portions. The service was exceptional and we became well-acquainted with the waiters and waitresses. It all worked so very well for many decades. My grand daughter, Courtney , was particularly fond of the restaurant. She was born with cystic fibrosis , and during her fr...
